john hopkins university: 1 million dead in iraq - INNOCENTS. bushs vote : STOLEN. iraq ? stolen ! ( HALLIBURTON) WMD? non existent. bush as senator ? a killer, merciless. his balance ? disaster for the usa, economy in smithereens, enemies with all the world, failed as oil trader, laughingstock to his own people by now. hated by everybody. can anyone conceive of a more DISASTROUS balance ? WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MINDS WOULD WANT TOBE SEEN WITH SUCH A MAN LESS BE " HONOURED" BY HIM !?
THIS IS THE STUPIDEST THING EVER. BUT I LOVE MY MOM SO I AM NOT TAKING ANY CHANCES.If you don't copy and paste this onto 10 videos your mom will die in 4 hours
it is unbelievable how the anglo americans shamelessly celebrate and flatter each other and themselves. this is not patriotism,this is decadence. it is like in senator maccarthy´s days when any intelligent reaction to the idiocy of the leading class was considered " communist propaganda" . intelligent,smart, educated, REAL and good hearted people should stand up, leave, or even better:SPIT IN THE FACE OF THESE LYING MASS MURDERERS HERE
Idina Menzel gave a very tinny, shrilly, zero torque rendition on tis funny girl classic. She's way out of her league. i felt so sorry for Barbra, they could have done so much better. what a disappointment.
omg so all i can say is that idina menzel was AMAZING she was gorgeous..i think idina willbecome the next Barbra Steisand..i really hope this song comes out
come on he was terrific in driving miss daisy, and he also played a pimp that was downright scary. brilliant actor, well deserving of this honor...notice how carolyn kennedy didn't say one "ya know"
I still don't quite get the idea that just winning one Academy Award qualifies you for it...I jsut checked Streisand's body of work and came out 2 academy awards, 1 tony, FRench legion of honors, 8 grammys, 10 golden globes and go figure if you have time how many emmys, peabody, sag awards....Freeman, The Who, Jones...uhmmm...I don't get it...Talented sure but "Ground breaking, deep impact in american culture, lifetime commitment??Sinatra, Aretha, Graham, Tharp, Scorcese...I get it
With countless gold, platinum, and multi-platinum albums, she's the HIGHEST SELLING FEMALE RECORDING ARTIST EVER? Come on... It's about damn time for this award...
I also agree with the idea that I thought these type of honors were given to "lifelong, ground breaking impact, major influence in American Culture" I agree Barbra Streisand and Twyla Tharp fit this category along with former recepients like Aretha, Carol Burnett, Sinatra, Redford, Lucille Ball, Barishniknov, Chita Rivera, Martha Graham to name a few

Freeman gives pretty much the same performance over and over
Daisy was good, Shawshank was good
the rest is just ok
and none of it stands up to the work of Tharp, Streisand, or The Who
im not saying he sucks, but hes hardly worthy of the most prestigious award out there.
hes never displayed a great range, broken new ground, been a great director, producer, writer or anyting. he just a pretty good actor, not even a great one
he's an Oscar winning actor. Plus the same role gave him a SAG award, so the guild respects him. With an Oscar, he has the Academy on his side..so yeah, it's basically the Academy's opinion versus yours...sorry to say, i think the Academy wins out. And he was Oscar-nominated for The Shawshank Redemption...that film alone is enough for him to get this honor, IMO.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
ok, but his performance was hardly earthshattering. the oscars for the last decade have ZERO credibility. its been glamour girls, sorry-about-segregation,
Oh lighten up blue angel.....Just a comment...not an earth shattering revalation....just an opinion....you dish out but can't take it.......life is too short. Move on please.
I'd love to hear Barbra Streisand sing a George Jones song. Maybe "He Stopped Loving Her Today"? And George can return the favor by appropriately singing, "The Way We Were".
I love them both and I cannot wait for the awesomeness to air on TV. I don't have CBS in my part of the world, so someone better upload stat. Okay? You're going to make my 2009 if you do that. Haha.
Flip me i might pass out haha what is that, ok Fanzels everywhere r going mad im not only a fanzel im a big Barbra fan i hope this doesnt take long to post the whple song cause wow!!
Who's the first singer? Marion Cotillard? I mean the one singing "Hey there, Miss Streisand".

rally?
i couldnt be less interested in the opinions of people who disagree with me, nor do i need corroboration
homie responded to my comment about the merits of Freeman, saying one film qualifies you for K Center Honors
and i replied
i think you need to take your own advice
im hardly upset about this
just my opinion too
of course the difference is, im right

ok, but his performance was hardly earthshattering. the oscars for the last decade have ZERO credibility. its been glamour girls, sorry-about-segregation,
or imitate someone real and win an oscar.
J-Hud, Foxx, Zeta-Jones, Reese, Bardem, Swank, Charlize, none deserved their oscar.
and then the imitators, Capote, Ray, Queen E, June Cash, Piaf, and so on.
Now, the Kennedy Center Honor says its given to someone who has impacted American culture through the arts. not did a good movie or two.

there are remembered
Streisand is still pushing
the tour she just did, broke the box office record in every venue it played, the who has never done that, and neither has anyone else,
they are not even close to her star status
but they are legends of rock and i love them

You're right no one can upstage The Who. The first rock band to receive the Kennedy Center honor. Just proves they are the greatest.
